The Department of the Air Force’s Program Executive Office for Command, Control, Communications and Battle Management is celebrating its 2-year anniversary today.
DAF PEO C3BM is responsible for acquiring and delivering the DAF BATTLE NETWORK. The office is composed of nearly 2,700 Airmen, government civilians, and contractors. The DAF BATTLE NETWORK is the integrated system-of-systems connecting sensor, effector, and logistics systems providing better situational awareness, faster decisions, and decisive direction. In short, resilient decision advantage to the joint force.
“I am immensely proud of our team’s ruthless focus and unwavering commitment to our mission,” said Maj. Gen. Luke Cropsey, C3BM program executive officer. “Together we’ve transformed challenges into opportunities, forged partnerships through extreme teaming, and delivered solutions that have advanced warfighting capabilities.”
Over the past two years, C3BM developed a plan and associated baseline around what the DAF BATTLE NETWORK technical architecture should look like, so individual capabilities can be seamlessly integrated. They now have an operational plan for how these specific capabilities connect in order to enable a joint task force commander’s scheme of maneuver.
“We’re not focused on any one single aspect,” Cropsey said. “It’s more about what role do these capabilities play in executing the mission, how do we connect them, how do we enable them, and finally deploy that role in the fight. We’ve moved from, ‘hey, what’s the plan?’ to ‘hey, here’s the plan.’”
The DAF BATTLE NETWORK integrates roughly 50 programs of record across the department, ensuring resilient decision and information advantage needed by the Air Force, Space Force, Joint, and Coalition forces to win against the pacing challenge. The network is the department’s contribution to the Combined Joint All Domain Command and Control modernization effort.
“The past two years have been about ‘start up to scale up.’ Moving forward, we’re focused on consolidating those gains, and deploying capabilities out the door,” Cropsey said. “We’ll continue the hard work needed to deliver what our Nation needs to win tomorrow’s war, today.”
